We propose an experimental programme to test Leggett--Garg-type temporal correlations in single-neuron dynamics. The goal is to distinguish between diffusive (Wiener/cable-equation) models and non-diffusive persistent stochastic models…
The Leggett-Garg inequalities impose restrictions on the values taken by some combinations of the two-time correlation functions of observables in order to be explainable by a noninvasive-realist classical model. While in the unitary…
We consider two protocols for the measurement of the temporal correlation functions of a dichotomic variable Q appearing in Leggett-Garg type inequalities. The protocols measure solely whether Q has the same or different sign at the ends of…
We investigate the violation of Leggett-Garg (LG) inequalities inquantum dots with the stationarity assumption. By comparing two types of LG inequalities, we find a better one which is easier to be tested in experiment. In addition, we show…
We investigate the intrinsic ambiguity in the definition of correlation functions arising from the inevitable invasiveness of quantum measurements. While algebraic correlations defined as expectation values of products of observables are…
We investigate the nonclassicality of an open quantum system using Leggett-Garg inequality (LGI) which test the correlations of a single system measured at different times. Violation of LGI implies nonclassical behavior of the open system.…
Quantum correlations, both spatial and temporal, are the central pillars of quantum mechanics. Over the last two decades, a big breakthrough in quantum physics is its complex extension to the non-Hermitian realm, and dizzying varieties of…
If the time evolution of a system can be understood classically, then there must exist an underlying probability distribution for the variables describing the system at all times. It is well known that for systems described by a single…
We investigate the violation of the Leggett-Garg inequalities for a quantum field, focusing on the two-time quasi-probability distribution function of the dichotomic variable with a coarse-grained scalar field. The Leggett-Garg inequalities…
The formalism of generalized quantum histories allows a symmetrical treatment of space and time correlations, by taking different traces of the same history density matrix. We recall how to characterize spatial and temporal entanglement in…
The Leggett and Garg Inequality (LGI) is a test of the classical behaviour of an observed system, in the case of a single measurement channel monitored at different times. Here we report LGI violation in cognitive tasks consisting in the…
We study Leggett-Garg inequalities (LGIs) for a two level system (TLS) undergoing Markovian dynamics described by unital maps. We find analytic expression of LG parameter $K_{3}$ (simplest variant of LGIs) in terms of the parameters of two…
I study several aspects of tests of macrorealism (MR), which for a given data set serves to give a quantitative signal of the presence of a specific notion of non-classical behaviour. The insufficiency of classical understanding underpins…
We show violations of Leggett-Garg inequalities to be possible for single-mode cat-states evolving dynamically in the presence of a nonlinear quantum interaction arising from, for instance, a Kerr medium. In order to prove the results, we…
Quantum mechanics has always proven emphatically as one of the main cornerstones in all of science since its inception. Initially, it has also faced many skeptics from many scientific proponents of its complete description of reality.…
In 1985, Leggett and Garg formulated a class of inequalities for testing the compatibility between macrorealism and quantum mechanics. In this paper, we point out that based on the same assumptions of macrorealism that are used in the…
We propose a new Wigner inequality suitable for test of the hypothesis of realism. We show that this inequality is not identical neither to the well-known Wigner inequality nor to the Leggett-Garg inequality in Wigner form. The obtained…
Causal inequalities are bounds on correlations obtained when operations take place in a causal sequence, i.e. in which the background time or definite causal structure pre-exists such that every operation is either in the future, in the…
This study investigates the emergence of macroscopic classical behavior from quantum foundations via the entropic Leggett--Garg inequality. We introduce a geometric framework for deriving entropic Leggett--Garg inequalities with…
Correlations obtained from sequences of measurements have been employed to distinguish among different physical theories or to witness the dimension of a system. In this work we show that they can also be used to establish semi-device…
